My therapy is about overcoming feelings of anxiety, depression, sadness, anger, or pain and developing ways to get the life you want. Many of us feel anxious and depressed about what is going on or worry about the future. If you are hurting those you love, you can change that. Do you need to handle your anger better? That is possible. Are you trying to survive a major loss? There is a way. If you have lost hope or don't know how to go about making these crucial adjustments, in our discussions you will develop insights to overcome these challenges, and learn about what needs to be done to achieve your goals, step by step.
We will discuss beliefs, assumptions, context details and bring in relevant therapeutic knowledge to develop new insights and perceptions so that new options become available. I will provide the structure and therapeutic knowledge to translate these insights into skills for a way forward that will uniquely fit your personality.
My own life experience informs my insights and is build on the considerable professional change knowledge I gained outside and within the therapeutic environment. Building a therapeutic relationship that can support our process is key and what we focus on initially to support the development of a suitable approach and before considering other commitments.
